  • Preservative Effects of Thymus Citriodorus and Rosmarinus Officinalis Volatile Oils on Prolonging Shelf Life of Raw Chicken
    IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology (IOSR-JESTFT) e-ISSN: 2319-2402,p- ISSN: 2319-2399.Volume 10, Issue 6 Ver. II (Jun. 2016), PP 63-68 www.iosrjournals.org Preservative Effects of Thymus Citriodorus and Rosmarinus Officinalis Volatile Oils on Prolonging Shelf Life of Raw Chicken Dara M. Jamil1 Faculty of Agricultural Sciences-Sulaimani University, Bakrajo Street, Sulaimaniyah - Iraq Abstract: The volatile oils of Rosemarinus Officinalis (rosemary) and Thymus citriodorus (Lemon thyme) at different concentration (0.1, 0.25, and 0.5) % were used to examine their preservation impacts on raw chicken.). Chicken pieces were immersed in ethanolic solutions (10 %) of the volatile oils of rosemary and lemon thyme for 30 minutes stored in (30oC) and in a fridge (4oC.After the first day, control samples were found completely putrefied, whereas samples treated with VOs (0.25 and 0.5 %) were found with acceptable organoleptic attributes and significant microbial prohibition for five days at (30oC) and for 10 days in the fridge (4oC). It can be concluded that beside their desirable flavours, the herbal VOs used can be considered as a natural preservative to prolong shelf life of raw poultry and this could have an economical potential on raw chickens at industrial level. Keywords: Food preservation, raw chicken, Rosmarinus Officinalis, Thymus citriodorus, Volatile oil I. “Introduction” Raw meats (cattle, poultry and sea foods) are known as perishable foods because they are ideal mediums for microbial growth, so they get spoiled and/or poisoned in storage unless they are freshly consumed or preserved, thus a number of preservation techniques, including freezing, heat treatment, salting, acidification, and drying have been used in the food industry [1] and [2].

All were grown organically. The 2 herbs that showed the greatest biomass were T. citriodorus (26.5 g/plant) and O. basilicum var. Cinnamon (105 g/ plant). For these, total flavonoids (TFL), total flavones and flavonols (TFF), and total flavanones and dihydroflavonols (TFDH) were also determined for their ethanol extracts. Furthermore, the antioxidant potential (AOP) and antibacterial activity were determined against foodborne bacteria: Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Campylobacter jejuni, and verotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC). The highest TPH (36 mg chlorogenic acid equivalents per gram of fresh weight) was seen for T.
